The Pakistani rupee showed a modest but promising recovery today, appreciating by 23 paisa against the US dollar in the interbank market. The rupee’s value climbed to PKR 287.45 from its previous closing rate of PKR 287.68, signaling market stability after recent fluctuations.
This slight gain is being attributed to improved foreign remittances and a decrease in import payments, easing the pressure on the rupee. Additionally, recent measures taken by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) to control inflation and stabilize foreign exchange reserves have contributed to this positive trend.
Economic experts in Pakistan are optimistic that if this momentum continues, it could help alleviate some of the economic challenges the country has been facing, particularly in managing its balance of payments and external debt. However, they warn that sustained growth will require more comprehensive reforms to strengthen the rupee in the long term.
